Why offer yoga to children?

Why offer yoga to children?

Yoga, and the many areas it includes such as chanting, breathing and meditation, can help with the busy school environment.

Sessions encourage concepts such as stillness, focus and discipline of mind and body. We approach teaching from a non-competitive perspective and encourage all children to challenge themselves, as opposed to comparing themselves to others in the class. We ask children to consider the effects that their thoughts and actions can have on their lives and the lives of others and how they can “be the change they want to see in the world”

Increased flexibility of body and mind

Better focus and concentration
